Dear Supporters, a quick update on the Advance Force’s position. We are all here in Ishango continuing with the training with Mayor M’Poka.

Getting the field ready for work

Maybe you have read in the Gorilla Blog that I was yesterday in Mutsora helping MGVP to gather the food for the orphans.

But I will be back in Ishango today to continue with the practice.

Great pictures, Elie. How many rangers are you training? are these new recruits or is this refresher training for current rangers?

Elie, first of all a big THANKS for helping the little gorilla orphans. The fruit you collected looked very delicious! Your training exercises look very impressive and promising. I must ask, are the patrols authorised to use lethal force?

Elie, I don’t know if you have heard the very sad news about little Vumilia passing away…again I want to give my heartfelt thanks for helping gather forest food for these two precious babies. God bless and keep you all safe.

I’m also interested to know at what level are you able to use armed force?
Keep up the training and your spirits!Yor work is very valuable and appreciated by us all.
